What are Dental Crowns and Bridges?

Crowns are a unique, custom-made cosmetic restoration that fits over the top of a damaged tooth. Dental crowns are made from ceramic, porcelain, metal, or composite resin, providing greater strength and protection for compromised teeth.

Dental bridges work with crowns, literally “bridging” the gaps caused by missing teeth in your mouth. A bridge sits between two crowned teeth or dental implants, using the crowns or implants as anchors. As a result, the bridge can fill in the gaps and create a beautiful smile while supporting the shape of your face and the function of your mouth.

How Do Crowns and Bridges Improve Your Oral Health?

In addition to restoring the appearance of your smile, dental crowns and bridges contribute to a healthier mouth. In truth, these cosmetic procedures correct issues with your teeth that are past saving with better dental hygiene. Yet, resolving issues of broken, missing, or decaying teeth is essential to preventing further problems from impacting your oral health. Thanks to crowns and bridges, you can expect:

• Improved Chewing Ability – By filling in gaps where teeth are missing, bridges enhance your ability to chew food properly, preventing digestive issues.
• Enhanced Speech – Unfortunately, missing teeth can affect speech. However, restoring gaps can improve an individual’s pronunciation and clarity.
• Prevention of Teeth Shifting – Filling spaces left by missing teeth prevents adjacent teeth from shifting out of place, maintaining proper alignment.
• Protection for Damaged Teeth – Crowns cover damaged or weakened teeth, protecting them from further decay or damage.
• Maintenance of Facial Structure – By supporting the jaw and surrounding tissues, crowns and bridges help preserve the shape and structure of your face, reducing the effects of premature aging.
